For the past week or so, nothing but negative and sad news has been reported about the Rihanna, Chris Brown tragedy. Reading multiple accounts of the battery and seeing various photos of Brown and Rihanna, I came to the obvious conclusion that even though this young lady may need to be more careful picking her male companions, she is certainly on the ball regarding her diet and fitness .

Rihanna is a stunning five foot nine beauty and each inch is slimmed, toned and chiseled to the bone. She is absolutely gorgeous.

Her diet consist of eating a healthy low carb diet and working out.

Rhianna offers a few tips such as, drinking water between meals, taking a multi-vitamin and eliminating as much sugar and processed food from the diet as possible.

Rihanna's Diet

As the gossip rags have pointed out, Rihanna has gotten into amazing shape for Good Girl Gone Bad. When asked about how she did it, Rihanna said:�I like carbs, but at the end of the day, carbs are the enemy. It wasn�t so much losing weight as being fit and toned and healthy. I just didn�t feel great. Now I�m working out and trying to eat healthy. That�s making me lose weight without even thinking about it.� She has been working out with a trainer, counting calories, and �obsessing� over her legs she says.

Before starting this diet you should know:- Eat regularly spaced meals and snacks, approximately every 4 to 5 hours, to avoid feeling famished and to keep energy levels high. - Eliminate as much sugar as possible from your diet: soda, sweetened beverages, fruit juice, cookies, cakes, candies.- Choose as many unprocessed foods as possible. Don't worry if you use highly processed convenience foods some of the time -- just minimize the damage as much as you can.- Drink water between meals. If you must have flavored water, make your own. (Even sugar-free flavored water is high in artificial sweeteners, which will perpetuate your sweet tooth.) Add lemon, lime or orange slices to plain seltzer water for a refreshing taste without sugar. - Take a daily multivitamin/mineral supplement for nutrition insurance.

Breakfast

1. Breakfast egg sandwich with egg and meat or egg and cheese, one fresh orange. 2. Protein drink (look for ones made with soy protein to promote a healthy heart). 3. Low-carb breakfast bar (look for ones with no more than 15 grams of carbohydrate and 250 to 300 calories).
